Here Comes the Flood (Live) [Athens 1987]

[Verse 1] When the night shows The signals grow on radios All the strange things They come and go as early warnings [Pre-Chorus 1] Stranded starfish have no place to hide Still waiting for the swollen Easter tide There's no point in direction We cannot even choose a side [Verse 2] I took the old track The hollow shoulder, across the waters On the tall cliffs They were getting older, sons and daughters [Pre-Chorus 2] The jaded underworld was riding high Waves of steel hurled metal at the sky And as the nail sunk in the cloud The rain was warm and soaked the crowd [Chorus] Lord, here comes the flood We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood If again the seas are silent, in any still alive It'll be those who gave their island to survive Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry
